What are the documents that constitute a record of conviction?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Hallgren, D068467 (Cal. App. 2016):

9. The parties have not cited, and our own research has not disclosed, any authority that explicitly lists or describes the documents that comprise the record of conviction. That said, we are guided by our high court's explanation that a " 'record of conviction' " consists of documents in the record that reliably " 'reflect[] the facts of the offense for which the defendant was convicted' " and appears to be limited to proceedings at and before the adjudication of guilt, whether by plea or verdict. (People v. Trujillo (2006) 40 Cal.4th 165, 177, 179 ["Three Strikes" law, 667, subds. (b)-(i)].)
